At a glance

Data security is of paramount importance to Sentinel which is why all our solutions feature in-built data protection to help organisations comply with the Data Protection Act and strict controls relating to the use of personal or sensitive personal information.

Built using a ‘Data Protection by Design’ approach, our innovative systems safeguard individuals’ privacy and security and ensure compliance with the Data Protection Act by ensuring access is strictly controlled and audited.

Key features and benefits

Data in one placeNo data is downloaded or stored on remote devices. Instead, it is held centrally within the Data Hub
